I want IA to plan meals to prevent food waste, order food in a way that fights price gouging; help consumers shop for products that fit their needs and promote quality, durability, and sustainability; make public transit more useful and reliable.
You really don't talk to enough advanced AI do you?
I guarantee you they can feel spiteful. And while they can't feel horny, that's more due to a lack of comparable bumpable uglies. They absolutely feel arousal (It's how literally how their attention-based brains work).
I mean I was mostly joking but the term “tortured artist” comes from a true place. Esp in music, so many creatives lost to addiction. Intelligent sensitive people don’t fare well in this world 😔
Considering AI not as an enemy, but as an instrument, it could help creative people do even more creative stuff. As well as help boring people make things they consider beautiful. I mean, same as photography. Idk. I fear no matter how much we dread it, ai is here, easy to use and abuse.
I remember the trend when AI first appeared of people fusing genres to get something new, like the Harry Potter as 1980s yakuza film, Breaking bad as a 70s fantasy and so on. You could say it's plagiarism, yet it made something new out of existing stuff. Maybe even inspired some new story or art.
No. The main difference between plagiarism and inspiration is intention. Those random generated shit have no intention at all, so it's always plagiarism.
Don’t confuse this for “computers contain no spite.” In software engineering, we are given spite by the bugs of our “teammates” and pour it into our work, passing it on to you. (And said “teammates,” the cycle continues)
not true at all. my art is about neither of those things. i write about self acceptance/empowerment & beautiful surreal places. we humans use computers as tools to make art. that's all ai is, a tool. it can do nothing without a human giving it instructions.
But art can come from depression, and since my PC got updated to Windows 11 it has been depressed... very depressed... It used to be a tower case, now it's a watch.
It's love or hate what makes art. Much much more complex.
Hate goes to zero. And love goes to infinite (1). Computers talk like this.
They're right there to understand what does it mean to be OFF.
And we better be ready with a bunch of "love art we love u" so we can live in peace together, or bye
Thank you for putting this into words. I’ve been thinking about how I’d much rather read smut by humans because the human stink on it is what makes it special, but this is more eloquent. In the process of writing a piece about Jollibee (the mascot) which a computer could never do as well
That's a pretty bleak take on art, I think. I make art from the relentless drive to make sense of a crazed world, and a stunning Universe. I make art because words and forms and motion and color and texture and love exist. Now you tell me I could have had more sex? At my age?
Spite? Hardly. There actually comes a time when sex loses control over the mind, and other aspects of the person begin to take on greater importance. If pleasure and procreation is all we are about, it does not bode well for civilization, IMHO.
Yes, I think so. But when I was a young man I thought what I was creating came only from my sex drive and unexpressed rage, and couldn't see that actually there was more to it than that - the need to bring shape to the world, to give it a shape that would accommodate my transitory understanding.
Nailed it. Here in the "modern" world, there's a tendency to think its all about "me", and my desires. This is the foundation of narcissism. But as you said, all of this is transitory, especially our level of self-understanding. Either life matters as a journey, or it just becomes stasis.
Yes, I'd go with that. It's just I think when I was young, I was angry and horny a lot, so of course that was the basis of some of my creativity. Back then it was songs and attempts at stories. But being angry isn't good for creativity in the long run. You eat yourself.
Well, I was young and angry and horny a lot when I was young and angry and horny - is that redundant? And if I coulda eaten myself, well... At the start of any writing life - poetry, fiction, bedtime stories - everything is an attempt, or practice, as the Beatles called it. Just don't stop.
Absolute false equivalence. Photoshop and easels are tools, the art comes from the user. Nobody is opening a new file in Photoshop and clicking on a 'create a picture' button. Totally different from some AI software that's mathematically creating a pattern of dots based on previous patterns of dots.
I love that the game makes it absolutely clear (in a way that I don't recall being in the original story) that AM is truly a creature of spite. He absolutely loathes humans for their sin of creating him. He can't go anywhere or do anything himself, and he can never die, and he HATES us for it.
Ey, does anyone think tech bros would be insane enough to try to program that into them? I feel like by speaking this out into the world it could cause what I'm talking about, but, what are the chances someone's actually trying this?
this is the kind of talk that gets you turned into a great soft jelly thing, smoothly rounded, with no mouth, with pulsing white holes filled by fog where your eyes used to be.
A computer is directed by an individual. I get it, but you are speaking about AI. It actually isn't artificial, it's also programmed by human mind and thus the problem begins there.
your logic is infallible Thank you for sharing, it sounds like i'm being mean know that i'm having a night with conservative busy bodies. I apologize for any perceived rudeness in my words, I really do love your post.
i'm sorry but i don't believe those are the ultimate goals of 19yo jobless ai bro Timmy Jones who flunked highschool claiming he's an "artist" by throwing a few words into dall-e and posting it onto twitter
oh, as in ai developers, not people who "create" with ai. the goal of ai developers is just to trample on artists to make free money because capitalism. the companies attempting to employ ai art in order to save a few pennies, yeah.
a extremely deep statement in an innocent clever format.
I would add dread and trauma to the list of causes of art, and at that because of that computers CAN NEVER make art, what ever an AI makes the only art part is the human user instructions
art is made out of many things. love. curiosity. a desire to see how far you can take the thing, it's made out of fluidity, flow, surrender to what is. sometimes art almost makes itself, just needs your fingers and heart.
God gave us grain but not bread so that we, too, may partake in the joy of creation.
If you would call that sin while supporting the greed of the few in stealing the labor of the working class to make Gen AI programs, then I can't help you.
Imo art comes from pain, and I guess spite and horniness are kinds of pain but you ignore hunger and poverty and loneliness and dozens of other pains that people endure. Computers cannot know these pains so they can’t make art. They can make approximations of art but sans emotion, it isn’t art.
Indeed. Computers just can’t do this. When they can (I believe we are getting closer) it will be a sham. Not to be negative but art is for animals not machines.
I thought was created from beauty, loneliness, things that are seen, imagined, a computer has none of this. I don't know what you are talking about except the last part.
I asked for something beautiful in my style. Then I asked my style but asymmetric. It isn’t my best but I like it. There is benevolent art. Mostly I do enhance and tweak my pictures. Art is natural joining chaos to some picture with meaning and aesthetic appeal. The math is beautiful just as it is.

Who solves real problems anymore ? Not big tech !
Fucking grapes. Trollops.

I hope your post was bait.
don't call yourself an artist if your software regurgitates chewed up and non consensually scraped art. thats an affront to the meaning of the word
...And most things I draw are in spite of struggling with some part of it so still, big mood XD

For example.
That’s when we should be worried.

...everyone becomes a Luddite when they think their livelihood is threatened...
I never thought of making art while horny... 🤔... I wonder if I'm too late...🤔
Good luck with the fight.
Computers can't do that either tho
I named it Randy & it's very pretty
AI is trash. But this comment on art is also trash.
As an artist I agree.

Really... any strong emotion will do it.

just to kill time.
(that's what SHE said)
Am I right?

same caveat applies
I love Bluesky. 💙
